Another Queens image, with a difference.

Well I braved the crowds to get some images of the QM2/QE2. But I got wrecked because I only had a 200mm lens with me. Way to long, I think something along the lines of 20mm would have been better.

But as I was walking back to my car I took this image. Not the queens image I had in mind, but look at this bunch of rough heads.

Good work fellows on a top vantage point.

Andrew, well picked and you were probably about 50m away when you took it (or about 10,000 people away :lol: ) I must have been contemplating taking a candid in the crowd not realising I was being taken myself :D

I'm always stroking my beard and actually I usually have my finger on the trigger so I'm not surprised.. but it is a bit of a penasive look. :)

We were having a laugh at leigh for being too soft to actually get up with us......



The little wuss would get up any higher than the top of the bin he was standing on

Hey, structural integrities of bins is nothing to be laughed about, and when you have my luck, it's a serious issue.

Plus, Geoff and Glen had more problems getting down than they expected.

Just how far up were you?

Oh yeah, Leigh, when is the easter themed avatar coming out?

It was maybe 2.5 meters on the front and upto 4-5 m drop on the other side... wasn't a whole lot of room up there either

Our exit strategy was not as good as we thought, Leigh is dead right, but no one was standing in front of us! :D
